Riigikohus saatis Selver AS-i puudutava vaidluse uueks arutamiseks ringkonnakohtule
Message
Tallinna Ringkonnakohus lõpetas 20.01.2016 lahendiga kriminaalasjas 1-14-3730
Selver AS-i ja tema endise töötaja Tiiu Valgu suhtes kriminaalmenetluse seoses
aegumistähtaja möödumisega. Prokuratuur kaebas otsuse edasi Riigikohtusse.
20.06.2016 lahendiga tühistas Riigikohus varasema aegumisel põhineva lahendi ja
asus seisukohale, et ringkonnakohus leidis ekslikult, et kuritegu on aegunud.
Riigikohus saatis asja uueks, kõiki asjaolusid ja tõendeid arvesse võtvaks
sisuliseks arutamiseks ringkonnakohtule uues kohtukoosseisus.
Selver AS on kogu protsessi vältel pidanud prokuratuuri süüdistust alusetuks ja
mõistetamatuks, sest Selver AS ei ole konkurentidega mingeid hinnakokkuleppeid
kunagi sõlminud. Hoolimata menetluse jätkumisest on Selver AS veendunud, et
pole rikkunud ühtegi seadust.

Title
The Supreme Court of Estonia referred the dispute regarding Selver AS to the Circuit Court for a new review
Message
With the ruling of 20 January 2016, the Tallinn Circuit Court terminated
criminal proceedings regarding Selver AS and its former employee Tiiu Valk on
all charges in criminal case 1-14-3730 due to expiry of the limitation period.
The Prosecutor’s Office submitted an appeal to the Supreme Court of Estonia. On
20 June 2016, the Supreme Court annulled earlier judgement and expressed a view
that the Circuit Court erred when considered the alleged crime to be expired
due to limitation period. The Supreme Court referred the case back to the
Circuit Court for a full review of all the circumstances and evidence by a
different panel of judges.
During the entire proceeding, Selver AS has deemed the charge of the
Prosecutor’s Office to be unfounded and incomprehensible since Selver AS has
never concluded any price agreements with their competitors. Regardless of the
fact that the proceeding is continued, Selver AS is convinced that they have
not contravened the law.
